I am a rural mail carrier and need a pair for everyday. They are perfect. Not too warm for being in the office preparing the mail for the route but perfect for being in the cold mail truck during delivery and a must have when topping out of the truck to deliver parcels to the door step. I wear Smart Wool head to toe everyday. I will contact customer service about exchanging mine since they have a hole/snag. I just don't want to give them up.
